Prompt
Create an image of a Victorian-era English countryside scene with a subtle, ironic twist: a well-dressed, elderly gentleman, representing Thomas Hardy, sitting at a desk, quill in hand, surrounded by papers and books, with a faint, wistful smile on his face, as if contemplating the intricacies of life, while in the background, a faint image of a son, representing the themes of "The Son's Veto", stands frozen, looking out at the viewer with a mix of frustration and resignation, blending realism with a hint of melancholy, in a muted color palette, evoking a sense of nostalgia and irony, in the style of a watercolor painting from the late 19th century.
